Jammu & Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah questions External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar
Srinagar (Jammu & Kashmir) – Recently, External Affairs Minister Dr.S.Jaishankar stated that integrating PoK into India will resolve the Kashmir issue. In response, Jammu & Kashmir Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah criticized him saying, “Who is stopping you from reclaiming PoK ? If you look at the map of Jammu & Kashmir, you will see that a significant portion is occupied by Pakistan, but another large area is under China’s control – yet nobody talks about it.” He pointed out that China has taken control of ‘Aksai Chin’, a region that was a part of Kashmir.
During an event in London, Jaishankar remarked, “We are waiting for the return of PoK to India. If that happens, Jammu & Kashmir will see lasting peace.” While criticizing the BJP, Omar Abdullah added, “You have already divided Jammu & Kashmir into two parts. Now you claim that this is what the people of Ladakh wanted. But did you ever truly ask them what they wanted ?”
Editorial PerspectiveIndians are well aware that PoK has not been integrated into India till date because of the pro-Pakistan stance consistently taken by the Abdullah family ! |
